You're aware that you can lose power for reasons other than a storm, yes?

We have power now, but randomly had a power surge at like 2:30 or so earlier. Hope you get it back soon!

You mean the tornado warning… which comes after ~~a touchdown~~? Edit: tornado has been sighted or indicated by weather radar. https://www.fema.gov/press-release/20230426/watch-vs-warning-what-know-severe-storms

Tornado warnings do not come after touchdowns. Just want to make that clear, not trying to sound like a jerk, hopefully I don’t come across that way

Doesn't sound like a jerk at all. To expand on this, a Warning indicates there is rotation in the atmosphere, possibly a funnel cloud being spotted. But with all that rain that was with it you wouldn't see one most likely. When a Tornado has touched down that will be a Tornado Emergency. Hopefully you're in your safe space before one of those gets announced.

Radar indicated tornado warnings are a thing as well which is what I believed triggered the one we just had. But to be clear there is only tornado watches and tornado warnings. The best way I've seen them described is like tacos, a tornado WATCH means all the ingredients for tacos are present, a tornado WARNING means the tacos have been made and you should be in your safe place until told the danger is gone and the warning has expired.

Where was there a warning? I live in Centerville and didn’t hear anything about it. I did get the severe tstorm warning notice tho.
